A woman who spent five hours stuck in the snow on the M62 has told of her 'horrific' night spent shivering in her car. Ashleigh Marsden, 31, didn't get home from a concert in Manchester until 5am today - despite setting off at 11pm last night.

After heavy snow on the M62 caused stand-still traffic all night, Ashleigh, from Bradford, West Yorks, was left shivering in her car.

She had been to watch Chris Brown's concert at the AO Arena with a friend, and the drive home should have taken just over an hour.

Ashleigh described a 'horrific' night as the pals sat shivering in her car. She said: "We had thought the concert might be cancelled because of the weather, but it went ahead so we went. "Manchester was ok for snow, but the surrounding areas were terrible so we were surprised it went ahead.
